On YouTube, take a look at cyfyhomeinspections, an independent home inspector’s page out of Arizona. The shoddy work he’s finding on homes that seem to be $700k and up is shocking.
Nothing bad can happen. Only good can happen.
Which is exactly why regulations exist in the first place.
You mean heavy handed government intrusion that cripples business and kills jobs.
Regulations are for us peons. Corporations can pretty much do whatever once they've greased enough palms.
I have seen his stuff quite a bit. He gets a TON of flak from the Tik Tok trades people claiming the things he is saying are violations aren't actually violations (ignoring the fact that all states don't have the same standards and that defending shoddy work doesn't make you look good). But even if they aren't "technically" violations, its still VERY shoddy work for homes that cost that much. Hell its shoddy for homes that cost anything. There are more and more of these inspector videos and channels showing up on the socials and the stuff they are exposing is insane.
Used to be you could negotiate to get things fixed, or lower the price. Now, most people buy without inspection at an inflated rate and then deal with whatever they find after the fact. It's a seller's market for sure.
This is usually true unless the city you’re buying in has a lot of rules and regulations around this sort of thing. (Government protecting people whaaaaaaat?!)
Usually, you beat up the seller to either fix it or cut the price. I did the latter, because I knew the lazy MFer I bought my house from was an auto mechanic who thought he was handy and had DIY'd a bunch of work in the 30 years he'd owned it. I didn't want him "fixing" any of the issues, lol.
